Let Z+\mathbb{Z}^+ be the set of positive integers. Find all functions f:Z+→Z+f:\mathbb{Z}^+ \rightarrow\mathbb{Z}^+ such that the following conditions both hold: (i) f(n!)=f(n)!f(n!)=f(n)! for every positive integer nn, (ii) m−nm-n divides f(m)−f(n)f(m)-f(n) whenever mm and nn are different positive integers.
